I was wondering whether the NWS or any other government agency issues maps or reports concerning the highest flood levels reached during Sandy in New Jersey. I have seen several anecdotal reports comparing the 1962 storm levels to Sandy, but I would rather rely on something more objective from the NWS. Also, thanks for the link you provided, plenty of interesting info.
